I'm A Baller - Chapter 412
Chapter 412: Christmas
Ten years earlier, Christmas was the subject of media criticism.
Young people were criticized for worshipping foreigners, lacking confidence in the cultural aspect, and disrespecting traditional holidays.
At that time, there were discussions and criticism revolving around these subjects, but now, no one cared about those.
The new generation is indifferent to all holidays, regardless of ideology. As long as they could take the time off, it would be considered a good holiday.
If there was no holiday, it was fine to take the opportunity to have a party.
There was no leave for Christmas, but you could invite the girls out to hang out and party, it would still be a good holiday.
It was the best holiday.
Tomorrow, Wang Yan had to spend the day with a group of singles. For the rest of today, he planned to give his time to San Wan.
The banquet had not ended, and he was already eager to return home.
After settling the business, he immediately called Xiangji’s concierge, rushed back to the Dance group, and picked up Liu Li at the door.
As she got in the car, she noticed a large bouquet of flowers in the back seat. San Wan was so happy that her eyebrows were raised and she complained in a happy manner.
“You had a business to attend to, so why were you going back and forth?”
Wang Yan laughed foolishly, “It’s a holiday…”
San Wan snuggled into Wang Yan’s arms, fiddling with the rose petals, and humphed affectionately, “Every day was a holiday if we could spend it together…”
As she spoke, she nibbled lightly on Wang Yan’s neck again.
So obedient and lovable!
Wang Yan was so touched that he was about to nibble back when she giggled and dodged, she grabbed his chin.
“What are we going to do?”
Wang Yan was not in a hurry. He smirked and raised his eyebrows, “It’s a secret!”
This piqued San Wan’s curiosity. She looked out of the car window, but she could not determine the destination at all.
Ten minutes later, the concierge car stopped outside a building.
San Wan was about to raise her head to look at the sign, but Wang Yan held her head and dragged her into the elevator.
“Childish! Let’s see what you were up to!”
Liu Li was too small to resist, so she could only curl her lips to show her disdain.
When they reached the sixth floor and opened the door, Liu Li was stunned.
It was a hotel room… Filled with pink lights.
There was a large waterbed in the middle of the room, a huge mirror on the ceiling. Red silk was hooked on the rings which were hanged on the walls and the roof.
She couldn’t see everything with a glance. When she turned around and looked carefully, there seemed to be a lot of inexplicable things in the entire suite…
Liu Li was so shocked that she went speechless. However, Wang Yan proudly opened his hands, “Surprise!”
What?!
San Wan threw the flowers aside and rushed to the clothes rack. Her eyes widened as she saw the billboard that was hanged on the wall.
San Wan was going to beat him up.
1.62 meters versus 1.78 meters. She was restrained on the spot and hung on the wall…
“Be good. I would be checking the results of your special training to see if you had been practicing hard these two months…”
It was a ridiculous reason, but Liu Li was not really angry.
A woman who loves herself looks good. Although San Wan was not practicing for Wang Yan, she did not mind showing off her extraordinary strength at certain critical moments.
After the initial shyness had passed, she grabbed the red silk with curiosity. With a bit of strength, it spun quickly like a spinning top.
Hiss… Hiss!
Wang Yan was stunned and moved to tears.
San Wan was proud.
“Are you convinced?! Although it was not compulsory to learn the ring dance and rhythmic dance, it wouldn’t faze someone who had learned the classical dance. Look at your naive expression. Luo Luo has studied the ring dance before and could hang on to it for two hours. If you saw her performance, you might go crazy.”
Why did she mention that woman for no reason?
Wang Yan didn’t understand, but when he was reminded of that scene, his blood boiled.
San Wan smiled smugly and hooked his finger, “Wang Yan, you’re not obedient…”
Ow!
Howling into the sky, he struck out a row of ellipses.
..

..
..
Wang Yan woke up at 8 o’clock in the morning finally felt the benefits of the new halo.
Reduced sleep time was equivalent to lengthen one’s life. One could enjoy the waves at night, without affecting their work during the day.
San Wan was sleeping soundly, Wang Yan did not disturb her. He set his mobile to vibration mode, laid down on the automatic rocking chair for some reading, and changed the script.
It was past 12 o’clock when she finally woke up. She wanted to sleep for a little longer but Wang Yan carried her to the bathtub and washed her.
“Let’s go! We have to go to the mall!”
Yesterday, she was so energetic. But now, she looked so pathetic.
Pouting, she pleaded pitifully, “No… Could you send me back to school and go by yourself? I could send Sister Weiwei with you!”
Wang Yan ignored her and said angrily, “Open your mouth!”
Liu Li obediently opened her mouth and bit on her toothbrush.
“Brush your teeth, wash up and comb your hair! You said you wanted to buy Christmas presents for everyone. Otherwise, do you think I’m willing to go through all of this?”
Liu Li was at her wit’s end and began to brush her teeth feebly.
After a mouthful of porridge, she left the hotel at one o’clock. San Wan deliberately turned around to look at the signboard and the door, memorizing the demonic den.
If she was tricked by Wang Yan again, she would be his dog!
…
The capital on Christmas Day had a strong festive atmosphere.
Especially SKP, there was a huge Christmas tree at the East Gate, and the shopping mall was filled with streamers, promotional slogans, ragdolls, and special price announcements.
“Wow! Wang Yan, Look, there’s a special prize for today’s event!”
“Wow! Wang Yan, Look, there’s actually an event at the Apple store that’s so cheap!”
“Wow! Wang Yan, Look, there’s a Santa Claus giving out candies over there!”
The half-dead San Wan was revived as soon as they entered the mall.
Everything was new and they were happy wherever they went.
It was rare for her to come out to play, and she was enjoying it, so Wang Yan was naturally happy to accompany her.
Poor Lin Weiwei, Fu Yushi, Na Wu, He Luoluo, Wang Xue, Lu Yuanyuan, and the others urged her again and again. When Liu Li answered the phone, her attitude was as good as it could be.
“Right away!”
“I’m picking out presents for you guys!”
“Yes, I”ll be quick!”
After she put down the phone and was completely lost in her thoughts.
Wang Yan grabbed two candies and three balloons for her. She licked the lollipop while holding on to the balloons as she walked around the first floor with Wang Yan.
“Oh no! They will kill me later… What should I do, Wang Yan?”
After her mood was finally satisfied, she felt a lingering fear.
“It’s okay, I’m here.”
Wang Yan began to take care of everything.
Liu Li blinked her eyes and continued to ask, “What’s your plan?”
“Let it bleed!”
Wang Yan turned his gaze to the luxury goods counter and raised his eyebrows nonchalantly. He was extremely handsome.
Recently, he was quite short of money, but he was not short of one or two million dollars. It would take him a day to catch his breath. He did not even need to work hard to catch his breath. He could just breathe naturally.
It was rare for him to relax with San Wan. She had to be pampered. It wouldn’t matter if he had to spend some money.
Things that could be solved with money were nothing to Wang Yan.
“Pfft!”
Liu Li laughed loudly and nudged him, “You only know how to throw money at people…”
“There are no women who can’t resist a set of high-end cosmetics. If there were, add a handbag!”
Wang Yan was smug and looked like he understood.
Liu Li was not jealous. She thought it was interesting. She tilted her head and asked, “Do you know how much time it would take to choose a set of cosmetics that suits a woman’s skin type, appearance, and style?”
Crap!
Wang Yan instantly realized that he had made a mistake!
How could he have time to slowly pick out gifts now?
It would be best if he could settle it all in one shop. It would save him a lot of trouble and effort.
In fact, he could have left this task to Dave a long time ago. However, Wang Yan respected Liu Li’s opinion. Since she had mentioned that they would be picking the presents together.
In the end, he was so engrossed that he had a headache due to the lack of time.
“Let’s go to Cartier.”
At the critical moment, Wang Yan decisively made the decision and found the most time-saving way.
“Don’t buy anything too expensive…”
“Okay, I’ll pick the cheap one.”
San Wan resisted weakly. Wang Yan followed her advice and…
He picked a bracelet of the same series that was worth more than 10,000 dollars for each person.
San Wan felt cheated and questioned angrily, “You said that you were going to pick the cheap ones!”
“Yeah, look over there. It’s 200,000 to 300,000 dollars per bracelet. Those were more expensive.”
Liu Li was already used to Wang Yan’s insolence. She couldn’t get angry at all.
“Don’t spend money recklessly. I think 3,000 dollars per item is more or less the same…”
“Hurry up. The difference between 3,000 dollars and 13,000 dollars is not a lot. It would be memorable to wear the same design as your sisters. Make up your mind quickly!”
San Wan didn’t know what to do. She frowned and picked out nine items. From time to time, she would mutter “too expensive” or “unnecessary”.
Things were different now. San Wan was gradually getting used to Wang Yan’s concept and level of consumption.
She brought her best friends to enjoy 200,000 dollars worth of spa treatments more than once. Every time, she would spend more than 10,000 dollars. Wasn’t that much more extravagant than buying a bracelet?
Therefore, even though she was muttering, she did not reject Wang Yan’s good intentions.
It was a rare occasion so whatever he was willing to gift, she allowed it.
The reason why Wang Yan did not give her expensive gifts in the first place was they were not close and he did not want to be rude.
But now, she could give away items worth less than 50,000 yuan. No one would think too much of it.
They all knew that Wang Yan had created such a big business. What was the point of thinking about it?
Just accept it happily.
Lin Weiwei, Wang Xue, Lu Yuanyuan, Fu Yushi, Na Wu, Luo Luo, Mina, Chu Hong all eight sisters would receive a bracelet. Including San Wan herself, they spent a total of 130,000 yuan.
The students were next, the group that was probably coming today, such as An An and the rest, would receive earrings worth 2,000 dollars.
The boys were easier to deal with. Wang Yan bought more than ten cufflinks, ranging from 3,000 to 10,000 dollars. They would be distributed according to their closeness in friendship.
Cartier’s cufflinks for men were well designed. It enhanced a person’s personality and was exquisite in detail. It was very stylish to use them as gifts.
Many people thought that pure silver cufflinks were not worth that much and that the price-performance ratio was too low.
Wang Yan did not think so.
The price-performance ratio should be considered, but things that cost tens of thousands of dollars were really not worth considering the price-performance ratio. As long as they were good-looking, that was enough.
It was not a big item like a private jet, right?
In fact, even if he bought a private jet, Wang Yan would not consider the price-performance ratio. He would think more about safety and comfort.
Those who dared to spend, and knew how to spend money, always had a different mindset.
Otherwise, they would not be able to become a tycoon.
After the sales assistant packed everything in a Christmas gift box, Liu Li lowered her head to look at the time. Her face turned pale.
“Oh no, it’s already 5 o’clock… They would kill me…”
“Could it be worse than yesterday?”
Wang Yan looked at her with disdain. He picked up the things, turned around, and left.
“Don’t rush, take your time. With these gifts, who would dare to be angry with Sister Liu Li today!”
Liu Li looked at the handbag that the sales assistant helped to carry and felt slightly relieved.
A gift of 200,000 dollars was something that she didn’t even dare to think about in the past. Now, it was right in front of her eyes, waiting to be distributed to her besties.
How could I consider myself as the Empress if I couldn’t handle you guys!
What was going on today?
Liu Li had wandering thoughts…
There was only one reason: She was tired.
It was not due to yesterday’s dancing but it’s mainly from shopping… really!
It doesn’t matter if they believed it or not.
So Liu Li secretly swore in her heart: Tonight, no matter what, I would be returning to my dorm. Damn boy, you didn’t check out at all, don’t think that I didn’t see it!
Poor Wang Yan, and there he was thinking about having a 30-minute nap, but the actor had to reverse history…
But it didn’t matter. It would be very lively today.
